Gains in Maize Genetic Improvement in Eastern and Southern Africa: II. CIMMYT Open-Pollinated Variety Breeding Pipeline (2017, background): “Hybrids have been a key component in the success of maize genetic improvement in many regions of the world (Duvick, 2005).”
Improving Maize Grain Yield under Drought Stress and Non-stress Environments in Sub-Saharan Africa using Marker-Assisted Recurrent Selection (2016, result): “05 0.17 0.83 5.03 0.45 0.33 0.83 4.89 0.43 350 www.crops.org crop science, vol. 56, january–february 2016 yr−1 (Duvick, 2005).”
Identifying factors controlling the continuous corn yield penalty (2013, background): “Hybrid improvements, increased plant populations, greater N fertilizer rates, and other management practices have resulted in a nearly sevenfold increase in corn yields since 1924 (Duvick, 2005) and an annual yield growth rate of about 1.”
Gains in Maize Genetic Improvement in Eastern and Southern Africa: I. CIMMYT Hybrid Breeding Pipeline (2017, background): “Under high input conditions, gain for maize grain yield has been estimated at 94.7 kg ha−1 yr−1 in China (Ci et al., 2011), 132 kg ha−1 yr−1 in Argentina (Luque et al., 2006), 80 kg ha−1 yr−1 in Canada (Bruulsema et al., 2000), and 65 to 75 kg ha−1 yr−1 in the United States (Duvick, 2005).”
Genetic Gains in Grain Yield Through Genomic Selection in Eight Bi-parental Maize Populations under Drought Stress (2015, background): “075 Mg ha–1 yr–1 (Duvick 2005), which is comparable to the overall genetic gain in our studies, and reinforces the usefulness of genomic selection for achieving high genetic gains in grain yield under drought stress conditions.”
Maize grain yield enhancement through high plant density cultivation with different inter-row and intra-row spacings (2016, background): “This occurred thanks to the 63 positive interaction between enhancements in cultural practices and plant breeding, which 64 improved components 2 and 3 of the crop yield potential (Duvick, 2005).”
Nitrogen Response and Economics for Irrigated Corn in Nebraska (2011, background): “Since then, hybrids have changed for N use effi ciency (Duvick, 2005), yields have risen by a mean of 0.11 Mg ha−1 yr–1, tillage practices have changed, crop management practices have improved, and fertilizer-N use effi ciency in corn has increased (Dobermann and Cassman, 2002).”
Survey of Plant Density Tolerance in U.S. Maize Germplasm (2014, background): “Plant density has increased from 30,000 plants ha-1 (12,000 ppA) in the 1930s (Duvick, 2005a, 2005b) to an estimated average (for harvest plant stands) in the U.S. Corn Belt of 70,000 plants ha-1 (28,500 ppA) in 2010 (USDA-NASS 2010, 2011a, 2011b) with a range of 62,000 (25,000) to 104,000 plants…”
Assessment of maize yield and phenology by drone-mounted superspectral camera (2019, background): “It is important to mention that breeding and management interacts with each other, neither factor could have raised yields by itself (Duvick 2005).”
